    suggestion: Better Camera Slider

    Hello,

    i have one suggestion: what about to add camera position slider to the sides (left/right positioning). From my perspective it is not that hard mechanic to add in to the game and from my experience it will add great immersion (GW2 have good slider and it completely changed how game feels). Righ now there is only very limited camera slider up/down without any other functions like different distances for different position, etc. .

    Thanks for your response and sorry for bad english.

    Your English is just fine; honestly you've communicated your suggestion much better than many native speakers. =)

    I have no idea what you're asking for, to be honest. The camera has a lot of movement. You can zoom in and out, tilt up and down, arc left and right, arc up and down. Do you also want to be able to shift the camera to the left or the right so that your character is off-center?

    Well, like i said, in settings there is camera slider that can do only up and down, so you are right: camera slider with posibility to move camera off center (to the sides). Next thing is: slider that is in game right now is not moving camera up / down but moving only angle and there can be something more adjustable like different distances / different height. Camera slider isnt something new to the games, so i dont think it needs some specific description. What i am asking is to improve it, that it will become adjustable at least to the sides. Or is there setting like this? because i didnt find it in game. For example in this link:https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/g...es-are-coming/ you can see image for camera slider so you can have idea how it was done in other games.

    Happy that we can agree there is no advanced camera slider settings and i am glad to describe to you what it is (Char. config - general - 3rd person camera angle - only angleing up and down and not changing position). So now we can go to the begining of this topic, that probably only developers can answere: Is it able to add camera slider at least to the sides? not only angles but reposition center of the camera from my character?

    Yes, they do.

    Yes, of course they are, but "trucking left and right" is exactly what OP is asking for. A slider or adjustment to move the horizontal position of the camera. As they stated: "[a] camera position slider to the sides (left/right positioning)."
